A 4.2-m-diameter merry-go-round is rotating freely with an angular velocity of 0.80 rad????s. Its total moment of inertia is 136

0 kg ???? m2. Four people standing on the ground, each of mass 65 kg, suddenly step onto the edge of the merry-go-round. (a) What is the angular velocity of the merry-go-round now? (b) What if the people were on it initially and then jumped off in a radial direction (relative to the merry-go-round)

Answer:

A) 0.44 rad/s

B) 3.091 rad/s

Explanation:

Initial angular momentum must be equal to final angular momentum.

W1 = 0.80 rad/s

I = 1360 kgm^2

Initial moment Iw = 0.8 x 1360 = 1088 rad-kg-m^2/s

For second case

I = (65 x 4)4.2 + 1360 = 2452 kg-m2-rad/s

New momentum = 2452 x W2

Where w2 = final angular momentum

= 2452W2

Equating both moment,

1088 = 2452W2

W2 = 0.44 rad/s0

If they were on it before,

Initial momentum

I = 1360 - (60 x 4)4.2

= 352 rad-kg-m^2/s

352W1 = 1088

W1 = 3.091 rad/s

What is the kinetic energy of a 1.00g hailstone falling at 8.50m/s
bearhunter [10]

Answer:

36.125 J

Explanation:

The formula for kinetic energy is KE = .5(m)(v²).

Using the given information, mass = 1 g and v = 8.50.  Plug that information into the equation.  KE = .5(1)(8.50²) = 36.125 J.

Define the following:
belka [17]
Define the following:
Potential energy: In physics, potential energy is the energy held by an object because of its position relative to other objects, stresses within itself, its electric charge, or other factors.
Kinetic energy: In physics, the kinetic energy of an object is the energy that it possesses due to its motion. It is defined as the work needed to accelerate a body of a given mass from rest to its stated velocity. Having gained this energy during its acceleration, the body maintains this kinetic energy unless its speed changes.
Mechanical energy:
Chemical energy: chemical energy, Energy stored in the bonds of chemical compounds. Chemical energy may be released during a chemical reaction, often in the form of heat; such reactions are called exothermic. Reactions that require an input of heat to proceed may store some of that energy as chemical energy in newly formed bonds
Sound energy: In physics, sound energy is a form of energy that can be heard by living things. Only those waves that have a frequency of 16 Hz to 20 kHz are audible to humans. However, this range is an average and will slightly change from individual to individual.
Light energy: Light energy is a kind of kinetic energy with the ability to make types of light visible to human eyes. Light is defined as a form of electromagnetic radiation emitted by hot objects like lasers, bulbs, and the sun. Light contains photons which are minute packets of energy.
Nuclear energy: Nuclear power is the use of nuclear reactions to produce electricity. Nuclear power can be obtained from nuclear fission, nuclear decay and nuclear fusion reactions. Presently, the vast majority of electricity from nuclear power is produced by nuclear fission of uranium and plutonium in nuclear power plants

If a light is moved twice (2x) as far from a surface, the area the light covers is ___ as big.
Serga [27]

Answer:

The correct option is;

- 4x

Explanation:

From the inverse square law, as the distance from the source of a physical quantity increases, the intensity of the source is spread over an area proportional to the square of the distance of the object from the source

The inverse square law can be presented as follows;

I = \dfrac{S}{4\times \pi \times  r^2 }

As the distance, r, increases, the surface it covers also increases by the power of 2

Therefore, where the distance increases from r to 2·r, we have;

When, I, remain constant

I = \dfrac{4\times S}{4\times \pi \times  (2\cdot r)^2 } = I = \dfrac{4\times S}{4\times 4\times \pi \times  r^2 } =  \dfrac{S}{4\times \pi \times  r^2 }

The surface increases to 4·S by the inverse square law

Therefore, the correct option is 4 × x.
